@RebeccasOffice Movie Review: Roman J Israel, Esq

I couldn’t decide what movie to watch this weekend. I am obviously holding my breath in anticipation of the new Star Wars movie in two weeks. Fortunately my partner recommend that we see Roman J. Israel, Esq. What a great movie. I think Denzel Washington puts together a great Academy Award Winning performance while Colin Farrell looks spectacular in a suit.

What I really like is that the movie takes place in my environment. In fact, the place that he purchases in the movie is indeed close by my office: https://stayinglevel.com/los-angeles/accommodations/ These are really great rentals if you are visiting the Los Angeles area.

And then of course they show the beautiful Santa Monica area where I just hung out this weekend along the beach enjoying our December sun.

I am leaving out a lot of detail about the movie because it really is an interesting movie as it deals with a lot of society’s issues today (especially as it related to black people) in a very tasteful manner. Great makeup and he kind of reminded me like Eddie Murphy from “The Klumps”. It was kind of like Rainman meets The Klumps meets Jackie Brown meets Boys in Da Hood.
